My favorite is definitely 182. It has everything you would want on one picture...beautiful background, curves in the road, and it clearly shows each of our cars. I might make a t-shirt out of that one.

Yeah, that photo is awesome. If you do decide to shirt that one, let me know, I'll kick in for a shirt too!

No way.....The pictures don't do the size of that dam justice. That sucker was huge. Even given a clean shot there would be no outrunning the ensuing wall of water. We'd all be driving Zubmarines.

Nice meeting you as well. I love how your Ultra Yellow looks in person. Sorry again about your bumper. I see that you installed your G200, I told you you'd love it. Doesn't it have a nice growl everytime you accelerate.

Moss!!! I was happy to see you and your wife (and for the life of me, I just can't remember her name...My apologies) there man!!! Sorry to hear about the ticket. That doesn't justify aftermarket parts like the bumper damage does .

You gonna go next year? If not, hope we see you this summer. The Capital 350Z / G35 Club will become a reality very soon, and we'll get some meets set up for the summer. Haven't heard whether Evolution Autosports is planning a summer meet like last year.

Make sure you check out killboy.com. I'm pretty sure there are pictures of you on the dragon on there, and they look GOOD!!!!

Take care!

Had a little incident getting off of the show field (yes, the show was in a grass field). The field was plenty flat enough for us ultra low cars, but the ramp to get in and out was kinda hairy. A guy was trying to help out by putting a 2x6 under the drivers side front tire from the side (so that I was driving over the 6 inch length of the board). When I rolled off the front edge of the board, it flipped up and caught one of the mounting brackets on the skirt and pulled the skirt rearward about 3 inches. It ripped the screws out of the rocker panel, cracked the skirt, and actually pulled the whole rocker away from the frame of the car. Fortunately, we were able to get the rocker to snap back in (thank God they're rubberized plastic stuff..). We put most of the screws back in, but it's got a crack right at the top near where the skirt wraps into the wheel well and the rocker got gouged where the screws dug in as they went rearward.

It's not as bad as it sounds, but when I heard the first "crunch", I almost cried. It'll probably cost a hundred or two to fix, so all in all, not too bad. The b!tch was that the associate publisher of Sport Z Magazine was in the car with me and were on our way out to take pics of the car. He was quite helpful in re-assembling the car after it happened. I was quite in shock.

Yes Sir! While everyone else was lining up for the dam shot, we stopped and took a few pics. He also took a bunch during the actual show. And while I wouldn't want to presume that my car will appear in the magazine, I sure hope it does. I would take it as a huge honor to appear on Sport Z's pages.

That's what Jess was saying too...I'm all game. If you guys want, I can order the hi-res of that on a CD. It's only like $5. If someone else can track down a place that does T-shirt printing from digital pic, we'll be 95% of the way there.

killboy does good work. I've bought several pics from him in the past and have never been disappointed!

Hey guys, I did sort of an impulse buy yesterday. I didn't feel like going to a local place to make the shirt, so I ordered a "test" shirt from iprint.com. I took the pic from the killboy website, which is 1024x768, so the resolution is fairly decent. It has that pic in the front, and then one of my car in the back. It should arrive by next Friday, so I'll bring it to the meeting that night for you guys to check out. If you like it, you can order from them. I'll PM you guys an image of how the shirt will look. You can only get the shirt in white. Let me know what ya'll think.
